Missing My Best Friend

The bond of identical twins cannot be matched. Eryn and I are closer than any other set of siblings, or twins for that matter, that I have ever come in contact with. We are on this journey called life together and I strongly believe we will make it to the finish line side-by-side.

After my odd work schedule, I have been given a week off, which has been nice. The one thing I was looking forward to during this week was spending time with my best friend. It only takes a couple of hours not seeing her and I already compile a list full of things to tell her. I should seriously consider taking a notepad with me to jot down ideas as they come to me.

I know she spends a lot of time with her boyfriend and I try to understand where she is coming from. I mean, I've been in a serious relationship before too. But at the same time, I wish she would hear me out sometimes. I don't know if she understands how honest I am when I say that she is all I have and the one thing I come home to. I just can't wait until we leave for California in August, because we will have some quality time together. No distractions. No interruptions. Just us and our family. :)

As I conclude, I wanted to list some of the benefits of being a twin, just because I feel it is fitting. Here they go:

  • Buy one, get one free deals are made for twins.
  • When trying on clothes, you only need to try on half of the items. The other one can try on the other half. (It makes shopping go quicker!)
  • You have a built-in best friend at all times.
  • You can share things such as car payments, clothes, and gas expenses.
  • Your strengths complement each other, so you can work well together.
  • You know that person better than anyone else in the world. Period.
  • You have the same taste in significant others (which is a good thing when one is looking and the other is already taken.)
  • You get the chance to answer questions such as "what is it like being a twin?" (I usually answer with "I wouldn't change my position for the world. I love every second of being a twin.")
